Add whatever you want to Strategies, Activities, Informal Assessment and Formal Assessment. Start by clicking "edit page" and then it is like a word processor. If you want to change the wording of what has been already written, treat it like your own text and change it. That is, if you have a more explicit way of saying something, or want to add more and change the wording, just do so. We will be able to track what has been changed, so we can discuss any discrepancies (let's not worry about "hurt feelings" here--this is academic meaning negotiation, and important for critical thinking!!). When you add something, put your initials in parentheses () behind it. That will help us to negotiate meaning.
